The first human colony ships transported colonists to other worlds in the [[Sol system]], including [[Luna]], [[Mars]] and the [[Jovian Moons]]. The construction of the first line of interstellar colony ships began in [[2310]], soon after the discovery of [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine|slipspace travel]]. In [[2362]], the ''[[Odyssey]]'' led the first wave of extrasolar human colonization, to colonize worlds in nearby systems; these would later be known as the [[Inner Colonies]].
